American Express $10 Small Business Saturday and $25 Amazon Statements Post in 1-2 Days
Today (December 3, 2013) I received statement credits for the $10 Small Business Saturday promo (post) and $25 Amazon promo (post). If you participated in either American Express statement credit promo, you should start receiving your statement credit emails.
$10 Small Business Saturday statement credit:
My Small Business Saturday statement credit posted after 2 days after my $10 purchase.
$25 Amazon statement credit:
My American Express statements close the first of the month, so this is what it will look like on your American Express statements. The Amazon $25 statement credit posted 1 day after my $75 Amazon eGift Card purchase.

Hey Grant,
I bought two gifts off Amazon with my Amex Blue Cash card. I purchased them together at the checkout, but because they were two different sellers, Amazon charged each seller individually. So, instead of the purchase showing up as one lump sum ($80.63) it showed up online as two separate charges ($26.64 and $53.99). Do you think they’ll still reward me the statement credit even though it was charged separately? Thanks!
Hmm that is very interesting. I would call AMEX and see if they could link the purchases together.
I will call today and let you know how it goes in case others run into the same problem. Thanks!
Please let me know. To avoid this with other AMEX cards, I recommend buying a $75 egift card from Amazon. That way this won’t happen again.
I just got off the phone with an Amex representative. They are going to give me the $25 statement credit. I explained my situation to the rep and he told me that to get the Amazon statement credit you must spend $75 in ONE purchase. However, because my situation is unique in that I ordered the products together but was charged separately, Amex is still giving me the statement credit. So, if this does happen to anyone else, just call Amex and they’ll take care of it. But, I think your advice was more helpful. Order a gift card of $75 or more and you’ll be set. Thanks for your help!
Glad to hear you will get the statement credit. Follow up with AMEX in a few days if you don’t see the statement credit.
It’s too bad that they lowered it from $25 to $10 this year. I had almost $250 in free purchases last year. Oh well!
Yes, I know, $25 statement credits are so much better than $10 statement credits :(
